I cannot recommend Dan and Lighthouse Exterminators highly enough. We were dealing with a terrible rat infestation in our home in JP, and after hiring another company that charged us a fortune and accomplished virtually nothing, we were frustrated and desperate for a solution. Dan was a breath of fresh air. He came out almost immediately and, rather than simply setting traps and hoping for the best, took the time to understand the problem and figure out how the rats were getting into our house. He suggested that we request a free sewer smoke test from the city—something the first company had never even mentioned—which ultimately pinpointed the source of the infestation. Dan then returned, sealed the opening, and exterminated the remaining rats. Throughout the process, Dan was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. He genuinely cares about his customers and takes pride in solving their problems. His pricing was also extremely reasonable. I am incredibly grateful for his help and would recommend Lighthouse Exterminators without hesitation to anyone dealing with a pest problem.

Expert Ant Treatment in Boston, MA
Ant problems in Boston are common and persistent. Pavement ants nest under sidewalks and foundations before pushing indoors. Carpenter ants tunnel through wood and can cause structural damage if left alone. Odorous house ants and pharaoh ants target kitchens, bathrooms, and wall voids. Boston's aging housing stock, from triple-deckers in Dorchester to older multi-units in Somerville and Chelsea, gives ants plenty of cracks and gaps to exploit. Coastal humidity adds to the pressure, keeping colonies active longer into the season. At Lighthouse Exterminators LLC, we inspect for the specific species in your home, locate entry points and nesting sites, and apply treatments that target the colony, not just the ants you can see. We serve homeowners and renters across Boston, Revere, Winthrop, Lynn, Cambridge, Malden, Woburn, Peabody, Danvers, and every community in between. If ants are showing up in your kitchen, bathroom, or along your baseboards, call us to get the problem handled right.

Ant Treatment FAQ
Common questions about ant treatment in Boston, MA.
Store-bought sprays kill ants on contact but rarely reach the colony. Boston homes with carpenter ants or pharaoh ants almost always need professional treatment to stop the infestation at the source.
Ants return because the colony is still active, often inside walls, under floors, or near the foundation. Even clean homes in areas like Revere or Malden attract ants through moisture and tiny entry gaps.
Yes, carpenter ants tunnel through wood to nest, which can damage structural elements over time. Homes in older neighborhoods across Dorchester, East Boston, and Cambridge are especially prone to this issue.
We serve Boston and the surrounding communities, including Winthrop, Chelsea, Lynn, Newton, Cambridge, Somerville, Woburn, Peabody, Danvers, Melrose, and more. Call us to confirm service for your address.
We apply treatments with your household in mind, targeting areas where ants are active while minimizing exposure to people and pets. Let us know about any specific concerns when you call.
